So I'm trying to figure out a low-budget way of essentially getting my palm m130 to carry a calendar and my to do lists. I even have DataViz's Beyond Contacts software. The problem is the BC software doesn't want to talk to my Outlook on my work computer for some reason, and I am not really sure how to narrow down what's going wrong.

Goldtoe Lemon.Nut: The 170-day Weekend

Goldman's back from taking a few months off, and shares a nugget that I like a lot:

When you have fewer responsibilities, those you do have take on a disproportionately larger weight. I found that no matter how little I actually had to worry about, I'd find some task or obligation that would become the "one big thing" nagging at me from void. Sometimes this one big thing would be laundry. The point is that you can always identify one obstacle in your life that, if removed, would make everything better (an annoying co-worker, a bad debt, a rash). Turns out this probably isn't true at all.

Amen, brother, and cf: 83 Problems.

Levenger Pocket Briefcase: Ballistic Nylon! For USD$28!

Hi there,

I have a frustration with how iTunes allows me to manage my Podcast subscriptions. Essentially, I'd like to have individual settings for individual subscriptions.

For example, some feeds I'd like to download every available episode, even if they're old, whereas some are highly time specific and I'd like to only download the most recent episode.

Others still I'd rather not have iTunes download anything without me selecting it.

Fans of Sogudi or Quicksilver can re-route their automated searches through the neato Dowser script/app.

Should I migrate from Eudora to Outlook?

My question to you: what's exciting on the show floor this year? Anything I shouldn't miss? Any exhibitors want to make a case to the Bay Area (and out-of-toen) geeks reading this? Beckon us unto your booth (and do feel free to offer free schwag and discounts to 43F Geeks in the bargain :)). NB: the usual admonitions on self-linking are lifted for this one -- provided they're tasteful and do indeed point to info on your exhibiting company (yes, I'll check).
